Can anyone get me up to speed on Ukraine and what's happening? Don't have enough time right now to mine google for information.

Thanks!

The government paid people to escalate the protest into riots to take sympathy away from the protestors, and there is apparently also a far right group instigating violence etc. amongst the peaceful protestors.

Talks between Yanukovych and opposition didn't happen like it was supposed to, but their respective 'deputies' met with talks showing no 'result'.

Klitschko got sprayed with a fire extinguisher trying to calm protestors and asking for peaceful displays of protest.
